A Study of Red

About the book

Anna Claire Santos came to Paros for a vacation. She did not expect to end up sharing a villa with an injured stranger who seemed equally surprised to find her there. Her unexpected housemate, Anton Luigi Li Fonti, is private, suspicious, and clearly hoping she will not ask too many questions. Anna Claire would happily oblige, if he were not also annoyingly observant, unexpectedly considerate, and increasingly difficult to ignore. What begins as a temporary arrangement soon turns into midnight drives, family interruptions, arguments that go nowhere, moments that mean far too much, and a series of choices that make their arrangement harder to call temporary. A Study of Red is a slow-burn romantic comedy set in Paros, Greece, with accidental housemates, dry humor, acts of service, family chaos, and two people who are much better at taking care of each other than admitting what any of it means.
